<p>A prior optical fiber connector (20) includes an elongated mandrel (21) of substantially uniformly elliptical cross section that is encompassed by a resiliently deformable housing (26) which, in its relatively undeformed state, can optically interconnect two optical fibers by urging their ends against a straight longitudinal groove in the surface of the mandrel (21). The interconnection can be made more easily when there is, either integral with or around the housing, an envelope (27) incorporating a pair of second-class levers (28) which, when squeezed together by ones fingers, deform the housing. The extremities of the levers can be formed to permit the connector to be releasably attached to a patch panel or to an optical fiber distribution module. <IMAGE></p> |
